The persistent current mode operation of HTS coils is one of the key technologies required for very high-field MRI magnets composed of LTS and HTS coils. But to date, the fabrication of persistent current mode system using HTS is not investigated well. In this paper, we fabricated the magnet and PCS using by BSCCO-2223 tape and jointed them with solder. The current decay behavior of the circuit was measured in liquid nitrogen by monitoring the magnetic field in the centre of magnet with a Hall sensor. To enhance the characteristic of persistent current mode system, superconducting joint method should be investigated.

Inserted HTS (high temperature superconducting) coil is promisingly expected as a solution for achievement of higher fields such as GHz scale NMR magnet. However, HTS magnet causes persistent current decay in the persistent current mode and this decay should be compensated in order to keep stable magnetic field. As a solution for the decay in the HTS magnets, we proposed a new type superconducting power supply, i.e., linear type magnetic flux pump (LTMFP). The LTMFP mainly consists of DC bias coil, 3-phase AC coil and superconducting Nb foil. The compensating current in closed superconductive circuit can be easily controlled by the intensity of 3-phase AC current and its frequency. In this study, it has been investigated that the flux pump can effectively charge the current for various frequencies according to the different load magnets.

This paper presents an analytic method to calculate energy conversion between electromagnetically coupled high-temperature superconducting and copper coils. The energy transfer from one coil to the other is commonly observed during quench of a no-insulation (NI) high temperature superconductor (HTS) magnet. Proper understanding of this phenomenon is particularly important to protect an NI HTS magnet, especially to avoid any potential mechanical damages. In this paper, analytic equations are obtained to estimate the energy transfer between the NI and copper coils. The well-known lumped-parameter circuit model is adopted provided that key parameters of the coils are given.

SMES systems need cryogenic cooling systems. Conduction cooling system has more effective, compact structure than cryogen. In general, 2 stage GM cryocoolers are used for conduction cooling of HTS SMES system. 1st stages of cryocoolers are used for the cooling of current leads and radiation shields, and 2nd stages of cryocoolers for HTS coil. For the effective conduction cooling of the HTS SMES system, the temperature difference between the cryocooler and HTS coil should be minimized. In this paper, a cryogenic conduction cooling system for HTS SMES is analyzed to evaluate the performance of the cooling system. The analysis is carried out for the steady state with the heat generation of the HTS coil and effects of the thermal contact resistance. The results show the effects of the heat generation and thermal contact resistance on the temperature distribution.

The heat generated in the high-Tc superconducting (HTS) devices is related with the cost efficiency and safe factor of HTS devices. This paper deals with the quench at the conduction-cooled joint between the HTS wire and copper terminals. The 3-D numerical simulation of this phenomenon was implemented and compared with the experimental results. The experiment was implemented with the HTS wire mounted on the copper blocks cooled with a Gifford McMahon (GM) cryocooler.

We are developing portable type HTS magnet system cooled by solid nitrogen. This system have recooling and recharging capabilities. In this paper, we report preliminary test results obtained from the experimental solid nitrogen system and pancake magnet would with Bi-2223/Ag tapes, respectively. The operation period was sensitively dependent on the vacuum rate n the cryostat, size of SUS tube for flowing N_{2}$, and liquid nitrogen to cool the cryostat. The fabricated coil I_{c}$was 75 A at 20 K in self field.

이 논문에서는 대 전류, 고온 초전도 직류 리액터를 위한 전도 냉각 시스템의 구조 설계에 대해 논의하고자 한다. 초전도 자석, 보 빈, 전류 리드, 고정용 구조물 그리고 열 교환기가 포함된 전도 냉각 시스템 부품의 크기를 3D CAD 프로그램을 사용하여 계산하였다. 또한, 최적의 설계 변수를 결정하고 열적-기계적 특성을 분석하기 위해서 유한 요소법 모델을 제작하였다. 리액터 자석의 운전 전류와 인덕턴스는 각각 1,500 A 400 mH이며, 이에 따른 극저온 냉동기의 냉각 용량을 결정하기 위해 초전도 직류 리액터에서 발생하는 열 부하를 계산하였다. 또한, 대 전류가 흐르는 1 단부전도 냉각 시스템의 작동 테스트를 수행하였다. 구리 바는 40 K까지 냉각되었고 초전도 리드는 안정적으로 작동했다. 실험 결과로써, 1 단부 영역의 총 열 부하는 190 W였다. 본 연구 결과는 상용 초전도 직류 리액터의 설계 및 제조에 있어 효과적으로 활용 될 것이다.

1.5 kA class HTS current leads for a SMES magnet, which are connected to a conventional vapor cooled copper leads, were designed. The HTS leads are composed of Bi-2223/Ag-Au tapes and a stainless stell tube. The estimated critical current of the lead is about 1.6 kA at 77.3 K and in a self magnetic field, and the heat input to the liquid helium from the cold end of the 35 cm lead is 0.4 W/lead. It has been made clear that the heat input decreases with increase of the lead length and decrease of the warm end temperature and Ag-Au/SC ratio.

Many superconductor applications such as MRI and SMES must be operated in persistent current mode to eliminate the electrical ohmic loss. This paper presents the characteristic analysis of the high temperature superconducting (HTS) power supply made of YBCO coated conductor (CC). In this research, we have manufactured the HTS power supply to charge the 0.73 mH HTS double-pancake magnet made of YBCO CC. Among the all design parameters, the heater triggerring time and magnet applying time were the most important factors for the best performance of the HTS power supply. In this paper, three-dimensional simulation through finite element method (FEM) was used to study the heat transfer in YBCO CC and the magnetic field of the magnetic circuit. Based upon these results, the final operational sequence could be determined to generate the pumping current. In the experiment, the maximum pumping current reached about 16 A.

The study of HTS bulk in permanent magnet applications requires the calculation of forces acting on the bulk. Currents distribution in HTS Superconducting bulk is very important to determine this forces. We have made computer program to find this current distribution and this program is applied to some simple disc-shape HTS bulk being magnetised in a uniform field. The techniques for determination of currents are FEM analysis and iteration method.
